Apps & Games content ratings on Softonic

Content ratings help you understand the type of content you might find in an app or game, so you can decide if they are suitable for you and your family.

What do the ratings actually tell me?

Content ratings describe the minimum age we feel the content is suitable for. It does not indicate that the app was specifically designed for that particular age, or if a certain level of skill is required to play the game or use the app.

Where can I find the content ratings?

You will find the content ratings on every app or game page.

Why are some apps or games unrated?

If an app or game does not have a rating, it means that it has not yet been rated, or it’s been rated and we’re working to update the page.

Rating Systems

Softonic uses the rating systems by PEGI and ESRB. The ratings you see may vary by country or region.

Convert your video files to be viewable on your Pocket PC

Articles PocketDivXEncoder

PocketDivXEncoder allows you to convert and optimize movie files for use on your Pocket PC.

Installing PocketDivXEncoder is a breeze, mainly because there is no installer! The program is pretty easy to use, with controls and settings which should be familiar to anyone who's even come close to thinking about video compression in the last five years, or who has dabbled with DivX converters. For those who haven't, all you really need to do is tell PocketDivXEncoder which device you'll be using and it'll do all the work for you.

Experts will likely balk at the lack of fine-tuning tools available in PocketDivXEncoder but its Advanced options dialog allows for greater control over such features as 2-Pass Encoding, XviD Compression, Audio Live Effect, and more.

A really impressive little feature is the live clip resizing tool, which allows you to preview your video while changing its dimensions - handy if you’re working with a device which doesn’t have native support from PocketDivXEncoder.

The most important factor in video conversion and compression tools is the quality of the end product. It’s no good reducing a movie to 4MB and rendering it completely unwatchable in the process. PocketDivXEncoder performed admirably when converting our (fairly high quality) test video, achieving good video compression without losing much detail.

Small changes we did notice was a slight alteration to color and brightness balance on the picture and an almost imperceptible shift in audio-video sync. These issues reflect the fact that PocketDivXEncoder is not a professional level tool but then again they’re almost impossible to spot without really hunting for them.

Working with PocketDivXEncoder is on the whole a pleasing, simple and rewarding experience. That a free application can offer such reliable performance and high quality – at levels often missing from other, highly priced DivX software – says a lot about what a good freeware program should look like.

If you’re looking to convert video to fit your PDA, all you need is PocketDivXEncoder.

PocketDivXEncoder supports the following formats

AVI, MPEG, MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, MP3, OGM

PocketDivXEncoder can encode your video in two different formats: .avi and .ogm - which must be played using The Core Pocket Media Player (TCPMP). The .ogm format is of a higher quality, but takes much longer to encode - so it's up to you which you opt for.

For a free mobile video solution, look no further than PocketDivXEncoder - the number one encoding application for handheld devices.
